Abstract of Talk:
In this presentation I seek to further develop the ideas around loitering put forth in Why Loiter, What Does Amoxicillin Look Like. Women and Risk on Mumbai Streets, What Does Amoxicillin Look Like india, a book I co-authored where we argued that the celebration of loitering was an important way of claiming city public spaces in defiance of laws against loitering after sunset and before sunrise. We argued that the only way in which women might find unconditional access to public space was if everyone, including those who were not necessarily friendly to women also had unconditional access. Subsequently in conversations with feminist activists who work particularly with young women we’ve been challenged several times on the grounds that everyone loitering includes even those ‘others’ (often young men) who intimidate young women and inhibit their access thus in fact restricting the access of young women, 1000mg What Does Amoxicillin Look Like.

In this presentation I reflect on the question of unfriendly bodies in cities: who they might be and what they might mean for varied marginal groups’ access to public space as well as the idea of unfriendly cities; understood both as cities full of all kinds of risks as well as cities premised on exclusion in quest of ‘global sanitized utopias’. What Does Amoxicillin Look Like, Focusing on a politics of justice in access to public space, this paper asks: What does it mean to stake an equal claim for all to loiter in public space. How does one engage with the threat posed by one group of such loiterers to another potential group.
